A, Schematics of the innervation of antennal nerve (ANl = left, ANr = right) onto the cibarial dilator musculature (CDM), maxillary nerve (MN) onto mouth hook elevator (MHE) and mouth hook depressor (MHD) and prothoracic accessory nerve (PaN) onto prothoracic dorsal muscle A and B (Prodo A/B). B-D, Overview of immunohistochemical staining of the larval CPS (genotype: OK371-Gal4/MHC-tauGFP;UAS-mCD8::mRFP/+) and innervation of the glutamatergic axons onto the muscles (top panels); Zoom of the neuromuscular junction of AN (fused to FN at the CDM), MN and PaN (B,C,D, respectively, bottom panels). FN, frontal nerve; FNJ, frontal nerve junction; RN, recurrent nerve. Scale bars: B,C,D upper panel: 100μm; B lower panel: 50μm; C,D lower panel: 25μm.
